Read This Great Article from Wine Access Magazine on Ravenscroft Glassware…
“There was a time when putting out your best wine glasses meant dusting off the fancy cut crystal-some pre-nuptial pattern picked for its pretty form, not its practical function.Happily, styles have changed when it comes to many things, including glassware. Form and function have now been happily married by several of today’s top glass manufacturers, making it possible to find a wine glass that not only looks good, but will make your favorite vintage taste its absolute best.…Good glassware also enhances the wine-drinking experience by focusing on the wine’s aromas. A wide glass with a large surface area for swirling allows the wine to release all of its volatile components, while a narrow opening delivers all of that bouquet directly to your nose. The effect is multiplied when the largest base is combined with the smallest opening, maximizing every nuance of bouquet.”Ravenscroft Crystal’s new line of Amplifier Stemware “takes this approach to tasting…‘The five Amplifier glasses are designed to amplify aromas, for better or worse,’ says John D’Addario of Vinicave in Montreal, the distributors of the new Ravenscroft glasses in Canada. The angular, distinctively shaped Amplifiers-best suited to technical tastings-hit you right in the nose with every aroma the wine can muster, from big fruit and vanilla, to alcohol, oxidization and other faults.The Polish-made Ravenscroft glassware also comes in a more subtle Sommelier line, with 30 different varietal-specific glasses…designed to ‘promote the positive and forgive the negative.’D’Addario says the main difference between Ravenscroft crystal and competitors’ glassware is in the glass-Ravenscroft crystal is 100 per cent lead-free-and in the price. Most of the Ravenscroft glasses are sold for a reasonable $15 per stem, with only the oversized glasses, like the 38-ounce Burgundy Grand Cru, hitting the $30 mark. And without lead, the glasses are not only toxin-free; they are particularly thin and lightweight. ‘Other companies create beautiful glasses but they’re not affordable for the common person,’ he says. ‘We make one line, our best line, and we’ve made it affordable, because we want everyone to enjoy wine to the fullest.’ ” |
